Story and flavor
The Chilton is a regional Texas classic originating in West Texas in the mid-20th century, often associated with country clubs and warm-weather drinking. Built simply with vodka, fresh lemon juice, and soda, and served in a salt-rimmed glass, it delivers a crisp, bracing profile that’s lightly tart and extremely refreshing. Its minimalist structure and subtle salinity make it a cult favorite despite limited national exposure.
